Well, Bernie doesn't look like he's dropping out anytime soon...

[DanTex]

I don't see that he's got much of a path to the nomination after tonight, but the way he's talking, sure looks like he's in it all the way to the convention.

James Carville's not going to be very happy about that LOL.

[Walleye]

1. He won't drop out. He will lose in an ugly way, again

[squirecam]

5. Yes

Didn’t hear him congratulate Joe...

[Moderateguy]

2. As bad as it was for him tonight

There were no knockout punches

[getagrip_already]

3. he is being typical bernie....

Bernie fist, bernie only, f everyone else.

[msongs]

4. yep still bad mouthing all the biden voters...nt

[NCProgressive]

6. Being gracious is a quality very few possess

Hillary Clinton showed how to be gracious in 2008 when she asked NY to go first on the delegate call and personally pledged all the NY delegates to Barack Obama.

It takes, class, dignity and a self-assuredness .... plus a love for the country above one's self.

[PubliusEnigma]

7. Bernie did just say he doesn't know what is going to happen in this nomination.

He sounded as if he was edging towards preparing his people for the possibility of a loss.

[jcgoldie]

9. why would he drop out?

Carville's comments were politics. Its not even close.

[GulfCoast66]

10. I heard it differently. Yeah, same boilerplate rhetoric. Much of which which I agree with

But near the end of the speech I thought he tipped his hand with the comment, after his voice broke, that he does not know where this campaign is going. He dialed it back, but he did not seem to have his normal fight.

And then the heartfelt thanks to Vermont for the years of love. Tonight has to be devastating for him. Hell, Biden may win Massachusetts!

I don’t like the man much. But I respect what he believes in and agree with much of it. Classic example where style is as important as substance in politics.

[honest.abe]

11. Interesting he did his 'victory' speech before CA returns have come in.

Suggests he knows it’s bad news.

[Blue_true]

17. I agree with you.

He only thanked Vermont, his win tonight by the largest margin. He didn't mention Colorado, which he won by a small margin, or Texas or California, which combine for something like 800 pledged delegates - seems he knows the worst news is still to come tonight.

[LiberalFighter]

12. Sounded like he was. But didn't happen. He might be close though.

[Jarqui]

13. He has to talk that way until he concludes otherwise.

There's still a bunch of TX and CA to come and UT

[AGeddy]

14. He will now take the opposition position from last week and say a plurality isn't enough

...and that we should "follow the rules" at the convention.


Sure as the sun rises tomorrow, Bernie will change his view back to his 2016 view.

[TheCowsCameHome]

15. A preview of what Trump would do to him.

Better now than in November, folks.

[First Speaker]

16. I'm no Sanders supporter, but I think he should stay in as long as he wants to...

...just as he did in 2016. We have rules and procedures in our party, and I don't feel that the convenience of the talking head class is a good enough reason to abandon them. Bernie should be Bernie, idealistic and grumpy, right to the end, if that's what he wants. If the media reaches for the smelling salts at the prospect of democracy breaking out...well, to hell with them.

[MyNameGoesHere]

18. We've seen the Independent Senator from Vermont playbook before

After infiltrating the hospitality of the wonderful Democratic party, like a drunken uncle he'll stay way too long trashing the houseplants as he curses his hosts on the way out.
